Click to enlarge image(s)

The Levitron Ion, antigravity globe is completely unique among levitating globes. Traditional magnetic levitating globes all utilize a distinctive two part suspension system consisting of a magnetic field generating head which is rigidly mounted above a sensor base. In a radical design departure, the entire levitating mechanism of the Levitron Ion fits unobtrusively within the modern, low profile base. The domed, mirror finish base rises only 1.75 inches above the desk top, and at less than 7 inches in diameter the stylish base fits comfortably on almost any desk.

The advanced electromagnetic field leveling technology of the Levitron Ion floats the blue ocean geographic globe a constant half inch above the center of the base. The globe is so perfectly balanced that even the slightest touch will rotate the globe effortlessly within its magnetic embrace. Unlike some floating globes, the Levitron Ion employs a globe capture design that takes over the moment power is lost. The magnet in the southern hemisphere of the globe snaps securely to a corresponding magnet in the base. You will never need to worry about your globe rolling aimlessly around your desk, bumping into and disturbing your organization.

With its blue ocean geographic globe, the Levitron Ion is an ideal executive gift. Although oceans, continents, and countries are identified, the uncluttered globe still manages to bring to mind the view the Apollo astronauts enjoyed as they gazed upon their home planet from the alien surface of the Moon. The obstruction free view of the earth sphere is mesmerizing, and provides a stress reducing focus for contemplative, restorative, mind refreshing thoughts.

Among the most easily mastered of levitating globes, even novice users successfully levitate the globe with minimal instruction and practice. If you prefer to spend your time enjoying your floating globe, rather than grinding your teeth in frustration over a globe that refuses to levitate, then look no further than the fascinating Levitron Ion!
